    MEP017A runs!

    I've been getting into other stuff since I got it running, but should be able to test it with at least some load this week. (?) I really should refresh the manual in my mind before messing with it much more, and it'd probably be smart to drive a ground rod.

    MEP017A runs!

    Not sure if I want to cramp it up in a small engine can, gimp. I'm sure it'll want some airflow around the set to keep it cool in the summertime. I was thinking more along the lines of rigging some insulated canvas or vinyl over the cargo bows of the trailer with a few strategic openings to let...

    Huh? Sorry, I didn't catch that. I know everyone uses that joke, but I'm not witty enough to make up a new one. It is pretty loud, but not as obnoxious as I was expecting. I've been thinking of building some kind of quiet enclosure for the traler, or maybe just parking it far enough...

    5 ton pricing!?

    I need to find those loggers. (Gimp insert lewd comment here) 13 g's can buy a lot of green stuff. I've seen pretty nice 818's retail from 6500 to maybe 9500, and a touch more with a winch. On a side nte, it can take as long to prep for flat towing as loading one up on a lowboy. At least until...

    Well, it looks pretty much the same now as it did when it didn't run. Buuuuuuut since you asked nicely... This pic is when I (we!) picked it up at the GA rally. This is the unit that worked it's way up from Brownsville, TX. Again, thanks to everyone who helped on that!

    I got a litte help from nitebawler (and kids) today and we got the ole' getset running. Had to tear it apart to change the oil pan, then the carb got replaced. As soon as I find the right spark plug socket I'll dig those out and clean them off (or replace them) because is misses every now and...
